Default 3 door front bodykit arches????

Recently noticed that the front bodykit arches on my 3 door are lifting away from the wings. They look as if they are held in place by double sided foam tape. What is the best way to re-fix the arches & how best do i go about removing them to do the job??
Help much appreciated

they are indeed held on with a strip of double sided tape. to fix it rite, u need to remove them & replace the tape. to do this u must drill the rivets out & remove sill panels first.

Is this an east DIY job? or would you recommend getting it done by a bodyshop? Are the correct rivets available for refixing??
